John Tory Progressives: How Polling Skews Elections. ⇒
16 October 2014, evening time
Before we start our journey, I want to congratulate Danielle Smith in Alberta, Adrian Dix in BC, Tim Hudak and almost every person running in the Quebec elections on becoming Premier. And of course best wishes to our neighbour to the south and President Romney… Is what I would say, if polls were actually accurate.
A fascinating article about polling and this election.
If you want to vote by polling to date – well then know that John Tory will definitely be our next mayor – if you want that Toronto, then vote for him. Olivia has a possible but not probable path – it’s a long shot – but if you want her Toronto, then vote for her. Doug has no shot, he is stuck in the suburban mud and has no room to grow. He simply has no path to victory.
Emphasis is mine. If you are a left-leaning voter in the city there is really only one choice in this election. And she’s not an old rich White guy.
This is a post from my link log: If you click the title of this post you will be taken the web page I am discussing.
Ya. If Tory wins, we all need to have a long talk about polls. I agree with this dude, there’s no way Ford can win. But shitty Forum polls make it seems like he can, which is what is sinking Chow. I feel like if polls were illegal, Chow would win.
